The defect
Pleasant Valley Teardrop Trailers LLC (Pleasant Valley) is recalling certain model year 2013-2017 T@B travel trailers manufactured January 1, 2013 through August 31, 2016 and equipped with a 3-way refrigerator. The affected vehicles have a rubber gas hose in the refrigerator compartment that can rub against the refrigerator fins, causing the hose to wear and possibly leak propane.
The risk
A propane leak increases the risk of a fire.
The remedy
Pleasant Valley will notify owners, and dealers will inspect, secure and replace the damaged gas hoses, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on October 3, 2016. Owners may contact Pleasant Valley customer service at 1-330-852-4811.
Notes
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
A safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
